[Asia Economy Reporter La Young-cheol] Yangju City Hoam Temple Site Museum announced on the 25th that it has completed the construction of a traditional pattern database to enable the industrial sector to utilize traditional patterns excavated from Hoam Temple Site, Yangju, Historic Site No. 128, as design materials to create high added value.

According to the museum, a total of 32 Hoam Temple Site patterns, including dragon patterns on roof tiles, Yeongnak decorations, and the Four Heavenly Kings' ten (十)-shaped small sculptures, have been enhanced with design elements and are available for use by anyone in commercial and non-commercial fields as long as the source is credited, under Public Nuri Type 1 license.

Furthermore, not only 2D but also 3D graphics have been constructed, allowing utilization in various materials such as mobile applications, fashion, accessories, educational materials, packaging, and interior design.

The museum plans to open the constructed data through the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism's Culture Portal 'Traditional Pattern Design' after final review.

Meanwhile, over 20 years of excavation and maintenance work at Yangju Hoam Temple Site have unearthed numerous 'remains' and 'artifacts' symbolizing temples and the royal family.

In particular, various patterns popular at the time were discovered, including dragons and phoenixes directly symbolizing the Joseon royal family, mythical creatures such as girin, decorative figures embodying warding-off spirits, various floral patterns, and Sanskrit-based Beomja patterns.
